So, I noticed recently that I've got 522,787 words published on Fimfic. That means I've recently passed the half-million mark, woo!

Which means I'm more than halfway done with my million words of practice before I can start writing good stuff. ^.^

So... June's over. That means one thing for me: time to tally up the number of words I wrote in June!
Oh, and before that, I'd like to thank Holy for inspiring me to start this word count. I decided that doing this word count would add another drive in my writing. So, let's get right into it!

June 1st: 864
June 2nd: 591
June 3rd: 78
June 4th: 264
June 5th: 83
June 6th: 2
June 7th: 27
June 8th: 1
June 9th: 157
June 10th: 573

For those of you who missed it, I’m doing NaNoWriMo this year. As such, I’m dropping all of my main stories to work on this.

And I’ve got updates!!!

Read More

A writing update. What They Hope to Find is over 37k words and counting. I had to split the draft into three separate chapters just to make it less ridiculous. Still working on the next installment, though. I had another scene I wanted to add before I do my final editing routine.

I doubt any of you noticed, but the word count on Peephole got changed for some reason. I don't think this happened back in the Fimfiction 4.0 update, but I'm not 100% certain.

Anywho, I got it back to normie, so now I can go write other shit without that bugging me.

Words, that is. Apparently that's the exact count of my new FlutterDash fic.

So... It's no secret to my friends that it's EXTREMELY hard for me to write large amounts in short periods of time...

I am 10.5k words into a fic that's purely for self-gratification and yet I am:
200 words into the next chapter of Divine Intervention,
500 words into the next chapter of One and the Same Thing,
1783 words into the next chapter of A Packed Crowd, and
30 words into the next chapter of Compatibility
Why is inspiration such a dick to me...

So yeah things are progressing but you know what? The new episode gave me some inspiration. When your headcannon breaks, you make a new one. Cliche I know but here's what you need to know.

I have been trying to work on two chapters of the story at once. One chapter being chapter 35 which is now at 4,407 words, and the rewrite of chapter 3 which is at 5,209 words.

Assessment days seeing what I could possibly do in a job situation is, at least, partially starting tomorrow and Friday (I guess there will be three assessments at least so unless something is up and there's something more- this means for the next maybe month or two depending on schedule I might not update stuff as quickly.

The prologue arc and chapter 1 put together are already over 14k words.

Have fun reading when the thing goes up. I'ma publish the entire prologue arc plus that first chapter.

Right now though I'm just stuck in a productivity hole. Don't really feel like doing anything.

I know it's just a simple doodle...

I have completed the entire first draft of The Runaway Bodyguard. It is 180,000 words long. I had planned for a novel half that length, but the best characters take over and only a fool decides not to listen and write down what they have to say.

...does word count affect how likely potential readers will, y'know, actually read it?

Currently the chapter comes in at 10k. I thought about releasing it where it's at right now, but I think it needs at least one more scene after the one I'm currently on. My PPSEFF (Pre-reader Proofreader Sometimes Editor Friend Forever) said a couple things that made me think about the pacing, and I decided the story needs to be sped up a bit, so the next chapter will see things moving along faster than they have.

So this one was written for Quills and Sofas fic contest a little while back. A week or two.

There were three prompt words, and you had to use two of them. The three words were accidental, denied, and intertwined.

Since I’m an overachiever, I naturally used all three.

IN WHICH I CAN'T BELIEVE IT
Note To Self: A pot of coffee will make the part of the brain that makes writing happen function, apparently. Also, living on a heavily forested hill gets annoying when all your trees are deciduous, leaves are fallen and wet, and your driveway slants at a steep angle -- this is the second time in as many weeks I've had to rake my driveway. So...

By now you should have already seen my report from the Camp Fire. This isn't that. There, I tried to put the disaster in its larger context. Here, I just want to offer little snatches of experiences from my seven days in the dead zone.

Turns out my 'Liked Stories' bookshelf has over three times the amount of words than the total amount of clopfics involving Twilight Sparkle on this site...
